As you have predicted many times that the jury will find zimmerman guilty just to punish him, what would be your analysis of why they might come back with a not guilty verdict?
I'm saying that IN MY OPINION I see the state as completely blowing this case. That's the way it works sometimes. Guilty people are found not guilty and not guilty people are found guilty. It depends upon whether or not the state can convince a jury of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt WITHIN the rules of evidence, the rules of court procedure, and the laws applicable, that the crime was committed. And, IMO, it means the Defense did a good job of rebutting the state's evidence through cross examination. That's the way it is in EVERY case. If the jury acquits, it will mean to me that the State failed to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
Missed this afternoon's testimony so I am catching up now. Have to say, even the police as witnesses is not helping the prosecution at all! I'm still waiting for the prosecution to actually prove their case. Thus far, they haven't even come close, in my opinion.

Besides, a lie detector test isn't admissible evidence.
I don't really see that, not that TM stating "you're going to die" means anything either. I mean, I've been in fights and I'm sure I've said something similar, but I never had any intention of killing anyone regardless what I may have said in the heat of the moment.

I'm aware of that, but a lie detector test and 2 detectives all stating GZ was truthful is pretty damning evidence.

I can only imagine how you guys would be howling if he had flunked the LD Test.
